I love all the words and the meaning of them. They're making me think about my life, myself... Very pretty project/design. May I ask what kind of pen/marker you used that has such clarity over the many colors/layers?

Chris, I'm using a fine point Sharpie poster paint pen. It writes over ANYTHING. Love it for art journaling. Unfortunately, they've been discontinued. I bought a dozen blacks ones before they became hard to find. I'm using black Staz-on ink for the stamping. I just keep it nice and juicy with a re-inker to get really black impressions. Thanks for your comments!

wow, there's a little booklet inside your art journal. Maybe two of them! How did you do that? So cool.

(besides which the pages are beautiful!)

Thanks Amanda. I see that you are going to put it all together at some later time. you paint the pages, then put together. Wow.
